God Of Darkness was
a demo recorded in 1968, by the Thoms, Drewett, Reynolds, Skeels, line-up it was
recorded along with the other demo The Ballard Of Martha Kent, the track was not intended
to be released as a single, or part of an album, it was simply done as a means
of the band having recorded material, to take to record labels that showed an
interest, in them. When it was recorded the band was still using it old name
"Bum", this and The Ballard Of Martha Kent are the only existing material
recorded by the band, before it became IRON MAIDEN in 1969.This
and The Ballard Of Martha Kent remained unreleased until 1998 when Audio Archives put out
the Maiden Voyage release, which featured both, demos as bonus tracks.
